He wasn't a king, and he didn't free Israel/Judah from its oppressors. Those are the real biggies.

There's
http://www.jewsforjudaism.org/web/pd...Pages_v4ab.pdf starting at page 41. Messiahtruth.org has a list of the main prophecies the messiah will fulfill as well as a link to other prophecies, but the link is no longer working. ETA: http://www.jewsforjudaism.org/web//f...-criteria.html |

Here's another thread on this topic...
http://www.iidb.org/vbb/showthread.php?t=188799 Jews believe that Jesus could not be the Messiah due to unfulfilled prophecies. Christians conveniently believe that Jesus left some prophecies unfilled so he'd have something to do when he came back the second time. |
